Spark, as led by the Indigenous Science Connections Team and guided by the Spark Advisory Circle, hosts several Indigenous Science Nights per year. These are usually on either Solstice or Equinox and connect with seasonally relevant teachings and/or themes. These are Spark-wide events and should be as collaborative as any other event.
